Very well established. I have so many Copepods in my sump, Chaeto Algae, and a bunch of those small starfish. Also have a bunch of small sponges growing in my overflow. I actually had to remove my protien skimmer once I put the Chaeto in my sump.

Where do y'all get your livestock? Local or online?

Really? I heard many people kill to have them established in their tank. Right now I have around 12 that I can see. I only feed with high grade flake food.
I get all my stock from Louisiana Fish Store off Airline.

Those little star fish will multiply by the thousands. I always pull them out of my tank when I see one. Also,Reef2Reef is a great forum. Just don't go OT on there by accident.

I was told they are a great indicator of overfeeding. Easy to keep an eye on their population vs. feeding.

I've heard horror stories. All it took was one article comparing them to aiptasia and I was done. Ms.Scoob has turned it into a game searching for and plucking them from the tank. I don't know if they destroy coral or not but I'm not willing to take the chance. They multiply like crazy.

I know they'll eat coralline.

If you're cleaning algae off the glass every day you may be overfeeding.
I recently started feeding my fish every other day and the corals once per week.

I'm having so much fun googling the shite y'all are talking about

I had one star show up hitchhiking on a zoa frag and in the past month we have probably pulled 10 from the nano tank.

Zoanthid coral
Frag is the term for a small piece that will grow over time.

That's crazy man. Sucks hearing different stories from different people regarding these things. I will keep an eye on them to see if they're getting out of control
Posted on 2/16/17 at 9:08 pm to Scooba
It's weird because I can't keep zoas alive. I've got a bubble tip anemone, blasto, hammer, torch, frogspawn, and lobo.

my clown tang died tonight
Posted on 2/16/17 at 9:26 pm to BigPerm30
I have frogspawn, Duncans, trumpet coral, zoos, ricordea, favia, acans, you name it. Everyone is doing well, but I can't keep fish longer than 4 months.
ETA: sorry to hear that Zach. Those are pretty neat little fish.

Are those good? They look awesome.

If you think you're gonna catch fish with a net in a reef tank, you really have no clue. Good trap by the way.

Fish tanks are fascinating. I welcome more threads like these.
